Fuse for 12v socket in boot ?

[jk88]

Went to use the 12v power socket in the boot the other day and found it not working. First thought was to check the fuse, but the long list of fuses in the manual doesn't mention the 12v power sockets (unless I'm missing something obvious). Anyone got any ideas ? All the other sockets work fine by the way.

Most new Audi's have their 12v switched so try it with the ignition on?

Thanks Chris, have checked with ignition on and definately doesn't work (the other three work fine). No mention of a fuse for the 12v sockets in the manual, seems strange or do they not have fuses these days ?

I would suggest fuse 3 and 4 are the ones you are looking for

I think you're right, not sure why I didn't spot it in the manual (although the listing is pretty extensive). In fact when I went to check the fuse, I noticed that the cable wasn't connected to 12v socket - it's in the same compartment. Clipped it in and all sorted. Thanks for pointer.
